Where the sources disagree
- insurance cover: The card page advertises insurance cover up to ₹2 lakh (personal accident and permanent disability); the MITC says available insurance cover is "Currently not applicable". We enter the page's cover and record the conflict.
Terms the calculator does not value
- The 1.25% cashback has eligible merchant categories, and possibly an introductory period, that ESAF does not publish (the MITC says the categories are at the bank's discretion; third parties report the rate runs for the first 90 days). The calculator assumes 1.25% on all spends and says so, so the card may be overvalued.
- No exclusions (rent, wallet, fuel, government) or caps are published for the cashback, so none are entered.
- Whether the card is issued only against an ESAF fixed deposit is not stated in ESAF's documents (a forum user reports it is); a lien-marked FD is the only route described in the MITC for secured cards.
